Intro:  F-C-Dm-Am-B-F-C   x2


 F        C             Dm                 Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
B                F            C
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find
F          C           Dm                 Am
While I recall all the words you spoke to me
      B                  F
Can't help but wish that I was there
      C
Back where I'd love to be, oh yeah


F    C       Dm          C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
    B                      F
to hold her when I'm not around,
          C
when I'm much too far away
F        C         Dm           C
We all need that person who can be true to you
       B               F
But I left her when I found her
    C
And now I wish I'd stayed
            B             C
?Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
       *          Dm  C  B
I'm missing you again oh no
           F
Once again


F                C          Dm              Am
There's nothing here for me on this barren road
        B                         F
There's no one here while the city sleeps
      C
and all the shops are closed
F               C            Dm                 Am
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you
B                 F              C
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through, oh yeah


F    C        Dm           C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
     B                        F
to hold her when I'm not around,
          C
when I'm much too far away
F      C         Dm             C
We all need that person who can be true to you
   B               F
I left her when I found her
    C         
And now I wish I'd stayed
           B              C
?Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
       *         Dm   C  B
I'm missing you again oh no
          F
Once again


Dm     *     B               F
Some search, never finding a way
Dm      *  B             F
Before long, they waste away
Dm      *  B                       F
I found you, something told me to stay
Dm   * B               F
I gave in, to selfish ways
Gm                         C
And how I miss someone to hold

when hope begins to fade...

F         C             Dm                 Am
A lonely road, crossed another cold state line
B               F            C
Miles away from those I love purpose hard to find


F     C      Dm            C
Dear God the only thing I ask of you is
    B                F
to hold her when I'm not around,
         C
when I'm much too far away
F      C        Dm             C
We all need the person who can be true to you
    B             F
I left her when I found her
    C
And now I wish I'd stayed
           B              C
?Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired
         *        Dm  C  B
I'm missing you again oh no
            F
Once again
